Politiska rivaler har enats om att hålla val i Libyen
I Libyen har den internationellt stödda enhetsregeringen, GNA, enats med krigsherren Khalifa Haftar om att allmänna val ska hållas i slutet av året, uppger FN.
Det oljerika landet har sedan diktatorn Muammar Gaddafis död 2011 slitits mellan rivaliserande administrationer och rad extremistgrupper, skriver AFP.
Haftar stödjer den rivaliserande politiska fraktionen, parlamentet i Tobruk, som vägrat att godkänna GNA.
bakgrund
Libyenkrisen
Wikipedia (en)
The Libyan Crisis refers to the ongoing conflicts in Libya, beginning with the Arab Spring protests of 2011, which led to a civil war, foreign military intervention, and the ousting and death of Muammar Gaddafi. The civil war's aftermath and proliferation of armed groups led to violence and instability across the country, which erupted into renewed civil war in 2014. The ongoing crisis in Libya has so far resulted in tens of thousands of casualties since the onset of violence in early 2011. During both civil wars, the output of Libya's economically crucial oil industry collapsed to a small fraction of its usual level, with most facilities blockaded or damaged by rival groups, despite having the largest oil reserves of any African country. U.S. President Barack Obama stated on 11 April 2016 that not preparing for a post-Gaddafi Libya was probably the "worst mistake" of his presidency.
